Not a good vintage for Burgundy but its my birth vintage. Wilted flowers, iron, dried roses and earth on the nose. Palate has the impeccable La Tache structure. Clearly over the peak but still very enjoyable for old burg addicts. In fact, the wine becomes more complex and serious with time without any signs of fading. Good to share it with dad on this special day! 90-91

20200808 One bottle meeting at Bellini. Very obvious over its peak, and giving the charm of the best old Burgundy. Very resistant to oxidation at that night, for hours. Completely different from La Tache in youth but as great.

A private DRC tasting (Waver, Ouder-Amstel, NL): Recently acquired, storage conditions unknown but probably mediocre at best. Bottle No. 004365 / 11.186, Wilson & Daniels slip label. Level approximately 4 cm below the cork. Not unpleasant but maderised, vegetal, retains its structure and freshness but not its charm.

Initially, classic la tache. Vosne romanee fund, Asian spice box, forest floor. Lovely aromatics and great fruit. It faded over 2 hours and became disappointing. Drink up and quickly

006337,pronounced aroma of Sous bois, rainforest, mushroom, plum. Medium flavor intensity.
Good acidity, high and rough tanning, so the structure is still here. Medium concentration with king finish.
But pass the peak very quick in the glass.
